Wing items

A.4 Wing Items

Most wing items created have a two variants: one for the left and one for the right wing. For consistency, both of them are represented in the documentation — many times, they are not just mirrored but two different shapes that appear to be mirrored with special care.

/pingu/left wing item angle = ⟨angle⟩(default: 0)

Relative rotation of the wing items placed in the left wing:

Compiled output

\begin{tikzpicture}
\pingu[cane left, cane right,
left wing item angle=70]
\end{tikzpicture}

left item angle: alias of left wing item angle.

/pingu/left wing item flip = ⟨true/false⟩(default: false)

Some wing items do have a different style, depending on the wing they are in (e.g. they are mirrored). This option toggles the style for the left wing.

Compiled output

\begin{tikzpicture}
\pingu[flag left, flag right,
left wing item flip]
\end{tikzpicture}

left item flip: alias of left wing item flip.

/pingu/right wing item angle = ⟨angle⟩(default: 0)

Relative rotation of the wing items placed in the right wing:

Compiled output

\begin{tikzpicture}
\pingu[cane left, cane right,
right wing item angle=70]
\end{tikzpicture}

right item angle: alias of right wing item angle.

/pingu/right wing item flip = ⟨true/false⟩(default: false)

Some wing items do have a different style, depending on the wing they are in (e.g. they are mirrored). This option toggles the style for the right wing.

Compiled output

\begin{tikzpicture}
\pingu[flag left, flag right,
right wing item flip]
\end{tikzpicture}

right item flip: alias of right wing item flip.
